Oh yeah, don't get me wrong this is far better than the eneba ultra marked up prices for 1000 ars. Still a bit pissed that after ~15 years I finally had to give steam my real address... laaaaaaaaaaaaame

MK11 got price increase by 8 times in Turkey. 82 vs 669. Even with 80% off it is still more expensive than it was last year.
Better get those cheap games while you can since more and more are getting +500% price increases:

Is it easy to swap store, just by using a VPN? I thought they had cracked down on it
Also which country has the best value/cheapest games?
Ryzen 5 5600, ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II, Corsair Vengeance RGB RT 32GB 3600MHz C16, MSI RTX 5070 Ti Ventus 3X OC , Corsair RMx Series RM750x. AOC AGON AG324UX - 4K 144Hz 1ms

Using a VPN has always worked, but you need a local payment method, that's the problem. Argentina has VISA and MasterCard. I couldn't get VISA to work, but MC worked.
And LOL @ RDR2 pricing, they can fuck off with such pricing.
PC: Yes. Console: No.

but dont you need a Visa FROM Argentinia? or can i just use my EU visa and enter fake name/address? heard that was getting accounts banned (no source though)
alternatively , buying a ARS gift card should work and pay w that upon checkout (w vpn active ofc)?

Most games starting from 2023 will follow the new recommended Steam pricing scheme, which jacks up prices by at least 500% for Argentina and Turkey.

If I get banned I'll let you know

On the plus side the Argentinian peso lost half of its worth since last year ( I guess it's time for another national bankruptcy) so it's a bit more bearable.

VISA doesn't work (I have tried 2 different VISAs), you need MasterCard to switch. You don't need one from Argentina, at least I didn't need it (YMMV).

I can confirm that a Mastercard works.
I used a one-time virtual card via Revolut and I was able to buy wallet funds in ARS, though the transaction took 8 hours to be accepted by Steam
I was sweating bullets during that time.
Exchange rate was normal, but still yay, no more need to sell keys and pay steam tax.
And even with the recent changes to recommended pricing Argentina is cheaper than USD/EUR/PLN zones, though not by much when it comes to AAA titles.
